Chapter 455 The nightmare really came...
"Dream?"
Chen Mo was stunned: "Didn't Ke Ji say that he could only manifest nightmares? What's the difference between dreaming here and asking for trouble?"
"We don't have to do it. Let's let others dream, and then we go into their dreams to see their nightmares..."
As Ji Xiaoxiao described it, Chen Mo found it more and more interesting. He couldn't help but get excited and asked, "How do we get into other people's dreams?"
"You are stupid!" Ji Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes: "What are we?"
"Inner demon."
"Yes! In the final analysis, we are just the embodiment of some negative emotions and obsessions of the original body. As long as the original body is alive, we will not perish. Even if the original body dies, we can live forever... Although we can affect the material world, we are indeed spiritual bodies!
Dabai and the old man are gods of incense and fire, and they can enter dreams through the method of dream transmission, so why can't we do the same?"
Chen Mo groaned for a moment and said, "Although I don't quite understand what you said, I think what you said makes sense."
"Is it?"
"Who should we let dream?"
As inner demons, they normally have no concept of sleep, unless they have the obsession of "lying down and sleeping soundly".
“This is easy.”
Ji Xiaoxiao raised her hand and said, "Who is that? Come here."
He summoned a certain inner demon.
Now the Inner Demon Residence has been placed by Ji Ruo in his own star realm. Since the establishment of the First Martial Arts School, the Inner Demons of all students now live in Ji Ruo's star realm.
This star realm is extremely vast to them, just like a real world, and it is full of energy. The eight large stars with different attributes that appeared after cultivating the Eight Extreme Heavens, as well as the Star Cave Heaven, the Tai Chi Star Wheel, and countless other star wheels, together make up this world.
Not only are there inner demons here, but there are also those villains of the Nine Sects' martial arts that Ji Ruo looted from all over the Nine Sects. The two groups of people live together here, and although there are occasional frictions, this has added some vitality to this star realm.
"My lord, what do you want from me?"
"Call me Chairman!" Ji Xiaoxiao raised his hand and gave the inner demon a slap on the head.
The inner demon covered his head with his hands in grievance, and muttered: "You clearly asked us to call you King yesterday..."
"Um?"
"No, no, Chairman, just tell me what you want!"
Ji Xiaoxiao nodded in satisfaction: "Do you want to know what you are most afraid of?"
"What are you most afraid of?" The inner demon was stunned: "Could it be that Chairman, you know?"
"I don't know either, but I can help you. Come, lie down here."
"?"
The inner demon hugged his arms subconsciously: "Chairman, I am a man!"
"What are you thinking about!"
Ji Xiaoxiao glared at him unhappily, too lazy to explain, he raised his hand and grabbed, the power of his own inner demon attracted the energy of the starry sky, the two forces were kneaded into a starry quilt, which directly wrapped up the inner demon.
"This is... um, I'm so sleepy..."
The inner demon immediately fell into a deep sleep.
Seeing this, Chen Mo's eyes lit up: "That's great! But... where is his dream? Where should we go?"
Ji Xiaoxiao confidently threw his shoe to ask for directions, but his shoe fell directly to the ground after being thrown, and his [Absolute Sense of Direction] was not triggered at all.
Ji Xiaoxiao scratched her head, not knowing what was going on. She said uncertainly, "He just fell asleep. He shouldn't be dreaming so soon, right? How about we wait a little longer?"
"Okay." Chen Mo didn't understand all this, so he followed Ji Xiaoxiao. The two of them, one big and one small, squatted beside the sleeping inner demon, waiting.
According to common sense, inner demons generally do not sleep, and even if they do sleep, they will not dream, because their nature is similar to dreams. They are not beautiful dreams, nor are they nightmares, but just the deepest obsessions in everyone's heart.
However, now that Ji Ruo is in this secret realm, although he still doesn't understand what its special rules are, it must be related to dreams.
Coupled with the forced sleep property of the [Quilt Sealing Technique], the two combined resulted in some subtle chemical reactions.
The inner demon really started to dream.
The nature of the dream itself is similar to the inner demon of the dream. Dreaming again, perhaps it can be called a dream within a dream?
Ji Xiaoxiao and Chen Mo didn't have to wait long before they saw a small cloud of white mist floating next to the sleeping demon's head, followed by a second cloud, slightly larger than the first, and then a third cloud...
When the fourth group of white mist appeared, it suddenly expanded, and its volume was larger than the previous three groups combined!
And it was this fourth group of white mist that, after a period of fluctuations, actually began to appear on the screen!
The content of the picture is exactly the dream of this inner demon!
"Shit! It really appeared!" Chen Mo was stunned.
"I told you? Hahaha!" Ji Xiaoxiao was also surprised that it actually appeared. To be honest, he was not sure.
But come to think of it, the form of this dream seems familiar...
"Look what he fears most!"
The two of them looked intently.
The picture shows a beach.
There were many people on the shore, and white seabirds that looked like seagulls were flying or walking. They were not afraid of strangers at all and allowed people to feed them.
"This background... is he afraid of this?" Chen Mo couldn't help but point his finger at Meng Jing and laughed, "Look at him, he's actually afraid of this, hahaha, I'm not afraid either!"
Ji Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment and said, "Maybe he's afraid that the seabirds will poop on his head while flying?"
Chen Mo: “???”
The scene suddenly zoomed in, and the two saw the protagonist of the dream, who turned out to be the inner demon sleeping in front of them.
At this moment, he was holding the shoulders of a girl who had the temperament of a girl next door, and kept saying something. Judging from his expression, he seemed a little anxious.
Not to mention Chen Mo, even Ji's tiny [Super Ear] couldn't hear the content of the two people's conversation. They seemed to be watching a colorful pantomime.
"What are they talking about?" Chen Mo scratched his ears and cheeks, curious.
"Come closer and listen?"
"Can you hear me?"
The two of them moved closer, but still heard nothing.
Ji Xiaoxiao tried to go in, but his hand went straight through the white mist. Ripples appeared in the dream, but it did not affect the process inside.
After thinking about it, Ji Xiaoxiao suddenly used the magic of the god of incense to transmit messages in dreams.
Although he and Ji Ruo are one in theory, Ji Ruo is the stove god after all. Although Ji Xiaoxiao can use the art of dream communication, the effect he produces is far different from Ji Ruo's.
After the spell was cast, the white mist in the dreamland turned into a whirlpool, producing an extremely strong suction force. Although it did not affect other things in the star realm, the two people who were both spiritual bodies and were very close to each other were not paying attention and were directly sucked into the whirlpool.
…………
outside world.
Relying on their memories, Ji Ruo and Liang Shixian re-entered the 'Void Maze'. After arriving at the place they had just left, they asked for directions again.
By the way, the other sneaker had already returned. After reaching the destination, the sneaker will automatically return and cannot be stopped.
This time, because Emily, Sheila and other three goddesses were gone, their progress was much faster. They had to wait for them before, but now they didn't need to.
Tim used some kind of magic to shrink his body, lay in Ji Ruo's pocket, and moved forward with them.
suddenly--
[Congratulations to the host for triggering the functional achievement: What are you dreaming about? Let me see! ]
[Achieved title: Dream Traveler (observe dreams, enter dreams, participate in dreams, change dreams)]
[Note: Kids, wake up! It’s time to go to bed! (Serious)]
[Note: Don’t sleep, don’t sleep! Not only are you drooling, but your dreams are also leaking out! ]
…
Ji Ruo: “???”
How did an achievement suddenly trigger? !
He obviously hasn't done anything yet...
Could it be...
Ji Ruo blinked. After obtaining the title, the whole world suddenly changed in his eyes.
He saw the so-called "void maze". He and Liang Shixian were now in a dark maze, surrounded by dark walls. But if you look closely, you will find that these walls seem to have life, like a surging black mist, but if you don't look carefully, they seem to be extremely hard. Ji Ruo stopped.
"What's wrong, Ji Ruo? What did you find?"
Liang Shixian also stopped immediately, with a puzzled look on his face, and let the sneakers go away - after all, Ji Ruo still had one shoe.
Ji Ruo didn't say anything, but just stretched out his hand blankly and tried to touch the wall of black fog.
If it had been before, his hand would have definitely passed through directly, and he might even have escaped from the maze again.
But this time, it was different.
He actually touched the entity of the maze.
The wall felt cold to the touch, but not completely hard. Ji Ruo felt that if he exerted a little force, he could still penetrate the wall and leave the maze.
But are we really leaving the maze this time?
With the title of "Dream Traveler", when he touched the wall of the maze, Ji Ruo clearly felt an indescribable thought trying to invade him. He sensed it carefully, but only saw some incomplete images.
The protagonists in these pictures are all different, but without exception, they are not experiencing anything good...
"Nightmare fragments?"
Ji Ruo was stunned.
He wasn't quite sure why he suddenly had this achievement. Perhaps it was related to this secret realm?
But now is not the time to explore this. Now that he has seen the maze with his own eyes, he has a deeper understanding of its complexity.
After scanning with his consciousness and exploring the fragments of the nightmare, he suddenly discovered.
What they ate during the day was not fish at all! It was not fish at all, it was clearly transformed from these nightmare fragments!
"Interesting, even a god like me has been fooled."
Ji Ruo said to himself. Facing Liang Shixian's doubts, he shook his head slightly without further explanation. Instead, he said, "It's okay, squad leader. Let's continue. We're almost there."
Liang Shixian didn't ask any more questions when he saw this, but just nodded: "Yeah."
Ji Ruo threw his shoes to ask for directions, and the two continued to move forward.
…………
In the inner demon dream.
Two seabirds stood on a reef far away from the crowd, with a look of confusion in their eyes.
At this time, one of them suddenly asked: "Where are we going to fly?"
The other one's eyes changed from blank to sharp, and he said firmly: "Of course, we're going to the pier to get some fries!"
"?"
The seabird was stunned for a moment, then said, "You misunderstood me, brother. What I meant was, what is the ultimate purpose of our lives? In the final analysis, what is the purpose of living?"
The sharp-eyed Seabird said firmly: "To get some fries at the pier later!"
"Hey you..."
"Trust me bro, if you don't go to the pier and get some fries, you're going to regret your life."
“…”
The seabirds were silent.
On the other side, the sharp seabird narrowed his eyes and muttered in his heart: "It's really dangerous. I didn't expect that this dream has such a strong assimilation ability. If I hadn't triggered the achievement and gained the title, I'm afraid I would have sunk into depravity..."
These two seabirds are Chen Mo and Ji Xiaoxiao.
Although they came in through the "dream method", it was different from normal dreams.
First of all, Ji Xiaoxiao does not have the power of incense, he only has the power of his inner demon.
Moreover, in conventional dream-telling, although the dreamer is the one being manipulated, the content of the dream is constructed by the operator.
But now, they have broken into the dream created by others.
They themselves are spiritual beings, so as soon as they enter, their identities are "arranged" by this dream, so that their existence does not seem abrupt.
If it weren’t for the title of [Dream Traveler], Ji Xiaoxiao would probably have forgotten what he was here for and thought he was just an ordinary seabird.
Ji Xiaoxiao was thinking about it when Chen Mo beside him suddenly nodded heavily.
"You're right, bro! Come to think of it, I'm a little hungry too. Let's go to the dock and get some fries!"
"Okay, wake up!"
Ji Xiaoxiao raised his wings and flicked them, knocking Chen Mo to the ground. Then, with the body of a seabird, he performed a set of Tai Chi on the spot.
This behavior seriously violated the settings of the 'Seabird' itself, so that the seabirds next to them were stunned in place for a moment, like a frozen painting - the dream did not understand, or the inner demon of the dream did not understand this behavior subconsciously, so they crashed.
Chen Mo was also stunned for a moment, and then black mist floated over his snow-white body. Then he woke up, and after seeing the situation clearly, he screamed: "I turned into a bird!"
"I've changed too. Tsk... Big devil, don't forget what we are here for. Now we can listen to their conversations up close."
Chen Mo was immediately excited when he heard this: "Yes, yes, let's go!"
As he spoke, Chen Mo swung his two slender bird legs and started running. Then he leaped into the sea, flapped his wings and used his bird legs to swim across!
"Are you stupid? We are birds now, let's fly over!" Ji Xiaoxiao said, "Are your wings there just for show?"
"Huh? That's right!"
Chen Mo finally reacted, swam back, went ashore and shook off the sea water on his body. After getting familiar with the situation, he flapped his wings and clumsily took off with Ji Xiaoxiao.
The seabirds here are still down.
After a moment.
The two flew to where the protagonist of the dream was.
There were crowds of people everywhere else, but here, within a radius of ten or so meters, there were only them and seabirds, no one else.
The others didn't seem to notice them and were busy watching and feeding the birds.
"Shasha, say something! Where did you go last night? Why didn't you reply to my message? Tell me!"
"Fugui, I..." The woman had a complicated expression, with four parts guilt, three parts reluctance, two parts entanglement, and a little bit of irritability. She said "I" for a long time and said nothing.
Of course, the expression that looked like a fan-shaped statistical chart was made up by Ji Xiaoxiao herself, but the woman's expression was indeed complicated.
Ji Xiaoxiao smiled contemptuously and said, "You can clearly express this emotion with your eyes!"
Chen Mo watched the two of them struggling with great interest.
The inner demon named Fugui, his full name is Xu Fugui.
Chen Mo said: "Hey, what Xu Fugui fears most is falling in love? Oh, sure, I'm afraid of that too. Xiaoxiao, you don't know, during the time when we were separated, Xiaohua..."
Chen Mo took the initiative to talk about his own gossip.
Although he was extremely reluctant during the time he was with Hua Qianrou, he did grow a lot. Of course, it wasn't all positive growth, after all, he was a demon in his own heart!
Ji Xiaoxiao lost interest after listening for a while. Moreover, Xu Fugui had been dragging on for so long and had no intention of moving forward. Ji Xiaoxiao became a little impatient.
"Big Devil, wait here for me, I'll go help them."
"?"
Ji Xiaoxiao did not explain and directly used the ability of the title [Dream Traveler] to transform himself into the woman named "Shasha", or in other words, temporarily occupied the other party's identity.
All of a sudden, Sasha's expression changed.
That hint of annoyance turned into a full face of annoyance.
"Xu Fugui, are you upset?"
Xu Fugui: “???”
"I've already said it, I just like the atmosphere there, and my friend insisted that I go!"
"!!!"
The nightmare really came...
